Does your school or system have axioms that support creating a collaborative learning community that educates all students?
Our school doesn't have axioms about about curriculum. The only axioms we have that I can think of is:
All children can learn.
Learning targets need to be rigorous.
Learning targets need to be relevant to engage students in learning.
- Allyson My school and district has many axioms that support a collaborative learning community contained within the vision and mission statements.
Our school mission statement lists the following beliefs Beliefs—We believe in:
Aligning our beliefs and our practice to address the developmental uniqueness of the age group
Teaching, modeling, and exhibiting respect, support, and cooperation with students parents, colleagues, and community members
Providing a welcoming environment where all students and staff feel valued, and safe, and are treated with respect, dignity, and equity
Providing an engaging learning environment with high expectations, differentiated instruction, and purposeful, relevant learning
Being knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and passionate about our subject matter and student achievement
Modeling the characteristics of the life long learner by engaging in on-going professional development
Encouraging open lines of communication and providing opportunities for parents and the community to become an integral part of our students' learning
The district vision states
The Educational Community is responsible for setting high standards for student learning.
The Educational Community communicates and analyzes district, school and student expectations and achievements.
The Educational Community fosters individual and group responsibility.
The Educational Community promotes and holds individuals accountable for a safe and caring environment.
The Educational Community instills a lifelong desire for learning; recognizing this as an ongoing process.
The Educational Community develops student and staff ability to problem solve, make decisions involving creative and critical thinking, research, and application.
Our schools are adaptable and flexible in an ever-changing environment.
So, I guess when it comes to principles or axioms we have many that we are working toward as a collaborative community. Pat Moriarty
Yes, our school district currently has axioms in place that support creating a collaborative learning community. The one that most compares with Peter Olivia's axioms is curriculum change depends on people to implement the change.-Patrick
Cheryl - Our school has some axioms that they live by. They believe that all children can learn through the arts and develop a true passion for learning. They also believe that the Arts breaks down demographic barriers to create a collaborative learning community for all. Also, imagination, creativity and committment is at the soul of learning and success. I believe that these axioms work for our school. Really these ideals would work in all areas of a persons life not just in school. This school teaches kids something different. It teaches them to follow a passion and learn all that you can from it.
